Adios to his title says Maricio Ortega while passing the interm. with 5 minutes behind ... won't take long when he steps out of the race .... that's how it goes here in Colombia no respect in the race ... you will be down at gunpoint before you can even think you are a celeb.

You will think why are they so fast at the top ... well they are mostly starting already at a high altitude so a litbit diff as from the European sealevel.
